I find that the easiest way to categorize email, especially when I need to generate a todo item from it (to be later ignored among way too many todo items), is to link to it from an org-mode buffer.

That iPhone app looks cool. I was thinking more along the lines of being able to email a special address and it automatically getting appended to an org buffer, or something like that.
(require 'org-mac-message)
(global-set-key (read-kbd-macro "C-c C-x m") 'org-mac-message-insert-selected)

There are tools for referencing directly to whatever is in your browser, check out org-mac-protocol (https://github.com/claviclaws/org-mac-protocol).
There's also an iphone app that allows input from your iphone and easy syncing with emacs and orgmode, http://mobileorg.ncogni.to/.
